Had our 20 week scan today, not only are we lucky enough to be having a healthy baby, but we also found out will be having a boy. Squeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

We already have a (very ecstatic) 7 year old boy - Oscar.

Names we both like:
Felix
Spike
Max

Names I like:
Caspar
Ptolemy (I know Grin Wink)

Names DH likes:
Stanley
Elvis (I know Confused Hmm)

What else could be add to our list? Our surname begins with an N and is one syllable.

I like Felix but weren't Oscar and Felix the Odd Couple in the film with Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau? Or that might be a good thing?

Actually I like almost all these names - I have an Oscar myself. If I's had another boy he might have been Linus.

I love Inigo

Not jasper with Oscar. I would choose a name that doesn't end 'er'

Bearcrumble · 11/05/2012 19:38

Hawthorn or Dashiell.

NOT Atticus, Arlo or Reuben - all far too faddy and getting tired already.

If you have Oscar and Felix they will be the Odd Couple. I love that film!

Is Spike a proper name? It sounds like a nickname to me.
